Minima Line Icons

Last Updated on June 29, 2026 by Editorial Team

Minima Line Icons is a small set of 36 minimal icons for web and UI design, created by Andre Gagnon. The set comes in two versions: a chunky weight for smaller or bolder UI, and a light version for airy, clean layouts. Enjoy!

Minima Line Icons reads exactly like its name suggests: a tight, no-frills set built for interfaces that need clarity over decoration. Every glyph in the preview shares the same stroke weight, the same rounded corners, and the same open, uncluttered construction, which is what gives the set its calm, almost architectural feel. Nothing here is trying to be clever or ornamental. A trash can is a trash can, a gear is a gear, and the search icon is a plain circle with a handle. That restraint is the whole point, and it’s what makes the set genuinely usable across a huge range of digital products rather than just a portfolio piece.

Scanning the sheet, you can see the set leans heavily toward common app and dashboard actions: archive and trash, clipboard and paperclip, settings gear, lock, shopping bag and basket, chat bubbles (single and double, useful for distinguishing a single message from a full conversation thread), calendar, search, user profile, location pin, a folded map and an open book-style map, alarm clock and plain clock, a grid icon for dashboard or app-switcher views, two toggle switches shown in both off and on states, a bookmark flag, a paper airplane for send actions, and a horizontal ellipsis for overflow menus. That’s a strong core vocabulary for account settings panels, e-commerce carts, messaging apps, scheduling tools, and general SaaS dashboards. If you’re wireframing a mobile app or a web app’s settings and navigation, there’s a good chance this set already covers most of what you need without hunting through a bigger, messier icon library.

The line weight sits in that sweet spot where icons stay legible at small sizes, like a 16px navigation bar, but still hold their shape when scaled up for empty states or onboarding screens. Because the strokes are consistent and the corner radii match across every icon, the set reads as one cohesive family even when icons from completely different categories, say the calendar and the bookmark, sit right next to each other in a toolbar.

Working the Icons Into a UI Kit

Since these are simple, single-color line icons, they behave predictably in any vector editor. A few practical habits will keep them looking sharp once you start dropping them into real screens:

• Keep the stroke weight uniform if you resize individual icons. Scaling a vector shape proportionally is safe, but stretching it unevenly will throw off the line thickness and break the visual rhythm of the set.
• Snap icons to a consistent bounding box, like 24×24 or 32×32, before placing them in a grid or toolbar. Even though the icons already share a visual weight, aligning them to the same frame size prevents subtle size mismatches when they sit next to text labels.
• Recolor by applying a single fill or stroke color change rather than editing individual paths, so the whole set updates together if your palette shifts.
• Group icons by function, like the two chat bubbles or the two toggle states, so state changes (read versus unread, on versus off) stay visually intentional rather than accidental.

Because the toggle switches are already drawn in both an on and off position, and the double chat bubble icon pairs naturally with the single one, this set gives you a head start on state design. Instead of hunting for a matching “active” version of an icon, you often already have it sitting right next to the default.

Pairing With Type and Color

Minima’s icons are neutral enough to sit comfortably against almost any color system. Since the linework carries no fill and no color of its own in the preview, they take on whatever hue you assign, which makes them easy to match to a brand’s primary or neutral palette. For dashboards and admin panels, a dark gray or near-black works well against a light background, mirroring the flat black used in the preview. For marketing sites or onboarding flows where you want a friendlier tone, try tinting the icons in a soft accent color and pairing them with a rounded sans-serif typeface; the icons’ own rounded terminals will echo the letterforms nicely.

When you’re building out a full interface, use these icons for structural and functional cues, things like navigation, settings, search, and status, and save any illustrated or filled icon style for feature highlights or empty-state graphics. Mixing a heavier illustrative icon into a screen full of Minima’s thin, consistent lines will make that one icon stand out for the wrong reasons.

This kind of icon set earns its keep in exactly the places where consistency matters more than personality: settings menus, form fields, e-commerce product cards, calendar and booking apps, chat interfaces, and any dashboard where a user needs to scan and recognize actions quickly. If your project calls for icons that disappear into the interface and let the content and copy lead, rather than icons that need to make a visual statement on their own, this set fits that job cleanly.
